Re: Clutch squeak

Maybe to help identify your problem, could you determine if the squeak is coming from the engine bay or inside the cabin?

If it's inside the cabin, it's probably just a hinge for the pedal itself which you could probably shoot some lithium grease at inside the cabin. If it's inside the engine bay then maybe there's some friction on the clutch cable (I think these are cable-actuated clutch vehicles, not hydraulic). Though if the squeak is coming from insdie the bell housing, then that's probably something you can't fix without opening up the trans housing to get at the clutch spring.
